War Thunder's Community Problem

War Thunder's community isn't the greatest, and neither is how Gaijin interacts with said community. Gaijin uses frustration to fuel game purchases for vehicle modifications, premium tanks or planes, premium time, etc. This frustration makes the community sour in general, which in turn leads to players abusing developers that probably had no say in it anyway.

"The only wining move is not to play" - every WarThunder veteran at some point

[danmen]

I can swear that I saw the title and read "If the war thunder's community was historically accurate"

[greatcanadianbacon]

Age old thing with Warthunder, amazing potential. Terrible execution

[TheKenji]

There are two kinds of War Thunder players :
- Those who like it
- Those who play it

Gaijin: Build every game mechanic aroud frustration
Community:insults devs and complains all the time
Gaijin: *suprised pickachu face*

[marklund]

The only solution to this state of affairs is a reduction in frustrating mechanics, no other fix will address the core issue.

[AveragePootis]

The "reducing traction" solution was typical idiotic gaijin work, i literally drifted my SU-85 in RB up the hills

[Cyan]

I'm still getting ghost shells every 5th match or so..

[PorWik]

The worst is getting rammed by a teammate when you have a shot lined up reloading in a casemate

[vicentegodoy]

The WarThunder community is like Yugoslavia just after Tito

[Gre-unit]

It's also cause developers don't know the problems of their own game. I've worked on mmos and triple a games, I can tell you I didn't finish working my 60 hours+ a week working on a game to go home and play that shit in my off time.

Me who is still in the lower tiers (3.7-4.7 br) after 2 years: I don’t see the problem here.

[chasebh]

The WT devs need to start new accounts and try to grind their way to the top again

[Tunnel_Rat]

Honestly i think it is both tragic and pathetic that they resort to a frustration model for the game, its actually the reason i stopped playing.

[waifuhunter]

Community : The grind is long and hard
Community : Add the F-14 damn it

[viscera]

gaijin always fixes everything in a satisfying way



but they make it satisfying the *gaijin* way

[homiespaghetti]

All I've ever wanted from gaijin was maps that don't have wide open spawns where you can get killed before even having time to react

[ThWolF]

The community literally complained that they cannot spawncamp.

[makaka]

Gaijin：Free Heat-fs for everyone
players： Fine, let's play PVE to grind modifications
Gaijin: Cool! We changed PVE maps and made it harder to play

[ThinknoddlesFinks]

i love how this game just turned from a cool f2p game to a torture machine, i get so frustrated when trying to play that sometimes i just open the game look at the tech tree and immediately quit, its just better to use my time for anything else than to play this game, and the best thing about the toxic community that gayjin created its that it not only affects the game experience but also the players mental health as well as the contents creators one like orange who just quitted because of that. and probably the devs as well since they have to endure all the rage and anger from those frustrated players. ( if they give a fuck about us).
